Download or read book P38 Signaling Pathway written by Ana Cuenda and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: p38 Mitogen activated protein kinases (p38MAPK) are a group of evolutionary conserved protein kinases which are central for cell adaptation to environmental changes as well as for immune response, inflammation, tissue regeneration and tumour formation. The interest in this group of protein kinases has grown continually since their discovery. Recent studies using new genetic and pharmacological tools are providing helpful information on the function of these stress-activated protein kinases and show that they have an acute impact on the development of prevalent diseases related to inflammation, diabetes, neurodegeneration, and cancer. In this Special Issue we present novel advances and review the knowledge on the identification of p38MAPK substrates, functions, and regulation; mechanisms underlying the role of p38MAPK in malignant transformation and other pathologies; and therapeutic opportunities associated with regulation of p38MAPK activity.

Book Synopsis Mechanism of Plant Hormone Signaling under Stress, 2 Volume Set by : Girdhar K. Pandey
Download or read book Mechanism of Plant Hormone Signaling under Stress, 2 Volume Set written by Girdhar K. Pandey and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-04-24 with total page 1114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant hormone signaling plays an important role in many physiological and developmental processes including stress response. With the advent of new post-genomic molecular techniques, the potential for increasing our understanding of the impact of hormone signaling on gene expression and adaptive processes has never been higher. Unlocking the molecular underpinnings of these processes shows great promise for the development of new plant biotechnologies and improved crop varieties. The topics included in this book emphasize on genomics and functional genomics aspects, to understand the global and whole genome level changes upon particular stress conditions. With the functional genomics tools, the mechanism of phytohormone signaling and their target genes can be defined in a more systematic manner. The integrated analysis of phytohormone signaling under single or multiple stress conditions may prove exceptional to design stress tolerant crop plants in the field conditions. Bringing together the latest advances, as well as the work being done to apply these findings to plant and crop science, Mechanism of Plant Hormone Signaling Under Stress will prove extremely useful to plant and stress biologists, plant biotechnology researchers, as well as students and teachers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most exciting areas of cancer research now is the development of agents which can target signal transduction pathways that are activated inappropriately in malignant cells. The understanding of the molecular abnormalities which distinguish malignant cells from their normal counterparts has grown tremendously. This volume summarizes the current research on the role that signal transduction pathways play in the pathogenesis of cancer and how this knowledge may be used to develop the next generation of more effective and less toxic anticancer agents. Series Editor comments: "The biologic behavior of both normal and cancer cells is determined by critical signal transduction pathways. This text provides a comprehensive review of the field. Leading investigators discuss key molecules that may prove to be important diagnostic and/or therapeutic targets."
Book Synopsis Regulation of the P38 MAPK Signaling Pathway by the Circadian Clock by : Charles Sidney Goldsmith
Download or read book Regulation of the P38 MAPK Signaling Pathway by the Circadian Clock written by Charles Sidney Goldsmith and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways are conserved biochemical signal transduction pathways in eukaryotic organisms. These signaling pathways demonstrate great versatility in their ability to detect various environmental stimuli and direct an appropriate cellular response. The circadian clock is a timekeeping mechanism that temporally coordinates diverse biological functions in an organism with the environment. Thus, it is not surprising that MAPK pathways have been utilized by the circadian clock to regulate many essential functions. Due to the conserved nature of circadian clocks and MAPK signaling pathways in eukaryotes, it is possible to develop hypotheses in simple model organisms, such as the fungus Neurospora, that are relevant to more complex organisms. The OS-2 MAPK pathway in the filamentous fungus Neurospora is rhythmically activated by the circadian clock. In order to generate this rhythmic signal, the circadian oscillator directly regulates the rhythmic transcription of the os-4 MAPKKK and histidine phosphotransferase hpt-1, which are upstream regulators of the OS-2 MAPK. Also, the circadian rhythm in MAPK activation produces a more robust stress response during the time of the day that stress is most likely to be encountered. Based on these data, a model for the clock regulation of MAPK activation is presented, and a biological significance is assigned to the rhythms in this pathway. Informed by these findings in Neurospora, the related p38 MAPK pathway was studied in mammalian cell lines that represent functionally distinct tissues in regards to clock function. A rhythm in p38 MAPK activation was observed in cells derived from the suprachiasmatic nucleus and fibroblasts of a mouse, the master pacemaker and a peripheral tissue, respectively. In cells that lacked a functional circadian oscillator, the rhythm in p38 activation was absent, and overall levels of p38 protein were lower. These data demonstrate a circadian clock-dependent oscillation in p38 activity. These studies provide a basis to understand how the circadian clock generates endogenous rhythms in MAPK signal transduction pathways. Also, the characterization of clock-regulated stress response pathways provides an understanding of the adaptive advantage of the circadian clock.

Book Synopsis The SEK-1 P38 MAP Kinase Pathway Regulates Gq Signaling in C. Elegans by : Jill Michelle Hoyt
Download or read book The SEK-1 P38 MAP Kinase Pathway Regulates Gq Signaling in C. Elegans written by Jill Michelle Hoyt and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gq is a heterotrimeric G protein that is widely expressed in neurons and regulates neuronal activity. To identify pathways regulating neuronal Gq signaling we performed a forward genetic screen in Caenorhabditis elegans for suppressors of activated Gq. One of the suppressors is an allele of sek-1, which encodes a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) in the p38 MAPK pathway. We report that sek-1 mutants have a slow locomotion rate. We show that sek-1 acts in cholinergic neurons to regulate both locomotion and Gq signaling. Furthermore, we show that sek-1 acts in mature neurons to regulate locomotion. We used genetic and behavioral approaches to demonstrate that other components of the p38 MAPK pathway also play a positive role in regulating locomotion and Gq signaling. There are two pathways downstream of Gq in C. elegans (PLC[Beta]/EGL-8 and UNC-73/Trio) and we show that sek-1 acts in the UNC-73/Trio pathway. Finally, we find that mutants in the sek-1 p38 MAPK pathway partially suppress an activated mutant of the sodium leak channel NCA-1/NALCN, a downstream target of Gq signaling. Our results suggest that the sek-1 p38 pathway may modulate the output of Gq signaling through NCA-1.
